Chapter 866: A Variable
The fair-skinned and slender hand was raised high again, and the direction of the lock was naturally Shen Ming's cheeks. Knowing that the princess wanted to hit someone, he not only did not retreat and dodge, but even took the initiative to meet him, just because he himself knew that he had done something wrong: "I know that you must resent me now." But there are things that are done, and I will never regret them. ”
Shen Ming's face had just been beaten, and now his cheeks were slightly red and swollen, coupled with his death-defying expression, it made people feel a little pity.
The princess was angry, she only felt that she was in a dilemma at the moment, she wanted to fight but couldn't be ruthless, she wanted to retract her movements, and she felt that she had lost too much before, and how much pain this kind of separation had caused her, presumably Shen Ming could see it more clearly than herself. But he said he didn't regret it? The princess laughed at herself: "I ask you again, do you regret it?" ”
Shen Ming shook his head decisively and firmly.
The princess's body trembled, and she gasped, and for a while, she didn't know what to say.
Just as she was staring at Shen Ming with a complicated expression, a gust of wind suddenly blew from the half-open window. But the breeze is normal, after all, the seasons are different, and this phoenix blows from outside, and it should bring a little floral fragrance. But after the breeze blew, the princess felt dizzy.
It was like a living person being thrown into the waves of the sea, and because they didn't know what the road ahead, they felt frightened and confused, and the same was true for the princess in the moment.
She pressed hard against the corner of her forehead that was faintly painful, and her eyes were as sharp as a knife: "What have you done to me!" ”
Shen Ming was still smiling, and with a gentle expression, he stepped forward to support her weak and boneless, and said softly: "You are too tired, I just want you to rest a little." ”
"No ......"
The princess clutched Shen Ming's collar tightly, trying to widen her eyes to keep herself awake, but she couldn't do it, the feeling of losing consciousness was like a wave sweeping in, no matter where she hid, she couldn't dodge, she could only watch the consciousness she had finally accumulated collapse and disappear completely under the erosion of the tide.
Is that what you want........
The princess closed her eyes tightly and lay obediently in Shen Ming's arms. Fingertips stroked his white cheeks, and he smiled slightly: "You still look cuter like this." ”
"Knock knock." Suddenly there was a sound outside the door.
Shen Ming's eyelids didn't lift, and he said directly: "Come in." ”
With a creak, two figures respectfully walked into the room. The one at the head was Shen Mingping's most trusted cronies in his life, and the one who followed behind his cronies was an old man with pale sideburns. He was dressed in plain clothes and carried a medicine box on his back, tremblingly waiting for the summons.
"This is the new doctor?"
The cronies replied: "This Doctor Song is the best at medicine, and it is said that he once imitated Shennong to taste a hundred herbs, and his subordinates heard about the name, so they took it upon themselves to invite him into the palace." ”
Shen Ming nodded: "You have done a good job, if the princess's situation improves, this king will definitely be rewarded." You, come and check the pulse. ”
The doctor stepped forward with bated breath, cautiously stretched out his hand to check the pulse of the princess, and finally came to the conclusion after a while: "The poison on the princess is a poison that can make people lose their minds, this poison is very difficult, I am afraid it will not be easy to unravel......."
"There are so many doctors in the hospital, won't they be able to see that the symptoms on the princess are the symptoms of Wushisan? What this king wants is not a method of detoxification, but a way to let her continue to take it without harming the body. This king doesn't want her to come to her senses, you know? ”
The doctor shuddered! No wonder for so many years, the princess's condition has not improved, and madness has been reported again and again, it turns out that it is because she has taken Wushi San! Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people have been planted in the toxicity of these five stones, so there is a well-known saying that it is better to take arsenic than to try five stones! One is because Wushisan can really make people lose their minds, and the other is that if Wushisan is taken too much, it will hurt people's roots! Rumor has it that the regent is so fond of his princess that even the stars in the sky are willing to take them off for her?
That's ironic!
Shen Ming has been in the court for so many years, and he has long been trained to become a pair of fiery eyes, how can he hide the confusion and surprise in the corners of the doctor's eyes and eyebrows? He just didn't bother to care.
"Is there anything you can do?"
The doctor is benevolent, and he knows a lot about the methods of curing diseases and saving people, but he has never thought of the method of harming people, let alone using five stones to scatter and harm an innocent woman, he can't do it!
The doctor gritted his teeth: "Please also ask Your Highness to forgive your sins, the grass people are stupid and their skills are not ........."
Shen Ming flicked his sleeves and shouted angrily: "Get out!" ”
The cronies hurriedly pulled out the doctor he invited from outside the palace with great difficulty, for fear that Shen Ming's anger would be too great and accidentally implicate himself, and before leaving, he did not forget to help Shen Ming close the door, so in the huge room, only Shen Ming and the unconscious princess were left, and only at this time would Shen Ming show a trace of vulnerability. He walked slowly to the bed, his eyes fell on the sleeping figure on the bed, and the rescue was silent.
To the east of the capital, you can see a mountain col for dozens of miles ahead, although this place is close to the capital, but because the terrain is not suitable for living, and the mountain is steep, few people will pass by, and it is usually a deserted place. But today, it's very different.
The dim lights hurriedly counted miles, and when they looked intently, they could vaguely see the figures of people, and from time to time there would be voices talking.
I don't know when it has been made into a camp that is not easy to be noticed, and now tens of thousands of people are camped here for the siege plan they have long planned.
Tonight, the main military tent held a meeting again, and all the people in the camp were invited, and Shen Haoran was among them. He followed the crowd into the tent, and his eyes glazed over, as if he were thinking about something.
"Hey!" Suddenly, someone slapped him on the shoulder.
Shen Haoran suddenly came back to his senses, and turned his head to meet a pair of smiling glances. Hearing that, the other party laughed and said: "I knew that you must be in a daze, I just called you several times, but you didn't respond to me once, when I didn't exist at all, the previous General Shen was not like this." ”
Another general smiled when he heard this, and also joked with Shen Haoran: "Our General Shen, this is the heart of which goblin has been hooked, right?" ”
"General Shen will also be tempted by people? Oh, don't be kidding! Who in the entire Liang Kingdom doesn't know that our General Shen is ruthless, let alone tempting people, I don't think he has feelings or not! ”
The joking voices around him became louder and louder, and a wry smile hung on the corner of Shen Haoran's lips. Most people think that he is only distracted because he remembers other things, not emotional matters, only he knows that what a few people say is true. Since he separated from Bai Qingyu yesterday, her face has appeared in his mind from time to time, and even sometimes, he can't help but think about what Bai Qingyu is doing at this time, he is becoming less and less like himself.
Shen Haoran lightly calmed the corners of his forehead, what the hell is going on?
Before he could come up with a reason, and everyone didn't discuss the answer, Shen Zhiwen, that is, the master who everyone had sworn allegiance to, came slowly surrounded by the guards.
"Meet Your Highness!"
Shen Zhiwen smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be polite, I invite you here today, mainly because I have something important to discuss." ”
Now at this critical juncture, the prince specially summoned them all to be for the siege of the city, and everyone is playing around, and when they really encounter serious things, they will also get serious. No, Shen Zhiwen only said a few words, and everyone in the tent quieted down, and their eyes fell on him alone.
The tent was a special place for meetings, and in addition to the long table for the meeting, which was large enough to accommodate all the generals, there was also a map of the capital of the Liang Kingdom, on which the prince's hand was slowly sliding.
"This is the focus of our offensive." Shen Zhiwen coughed lightly and said, "You can see, this place is a mountain forest, I have ordered someone to investigate, the entire capital, and this place has the weakest defense, we can start from here." ”
"Your Highness, it's not that your subordinates want to pour cold water on you, it's just that the capital is really not easy to attack, just the high walls on all sides, it's not easy to attack, let alone break through......." If you bite the bullet, it's tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg! His worries are exactly what others are worried about.
After hearing this, everyone's gaze became even more burning.
Shen Zhiwen didn't see panic on his face, and said with confidence: "I understand your worries, since the establishment of the capital of the Liang Kingdom, it has never been breached for hundreds of years, and it is relying on this high city wall. It will be difficult to break through this impregnable city, but rest assured, I have everything in place for the day when I send my troops to attack. ”
Shen Zhiwen didn't say much about what dark lines he had buried, but everyone could see from the look on his face that he was confident.
Out of trust in the crown prince, they decided to risk their lives!
"My subordinates understand!"
In addition to the arrangement of the East City Gate, Shen Zhiwen also told his subordinates a lot of plans, the attack on the capital of Liang State was planned by their group a long time ago, and the plan was meticulous to the extreme, and almost every step of the way was arranged to retreat, which shows the depth of their thoughts!
Realizing this, blood boiled in the chests of the people, and they decided to unconditionally believe in those they followed: "Do as Your Highness commands!" ”
Shen Zhiwen nodded, his gaze swept over their faces one by one, and his heart was a little more sentimental. To be sure, he doesn't like war, because war means that many people will die, and each of them is special, but on the battlefield it seems so ordinary.
